On November 10, Argan rose 8.46% in Regular Trading, trading at $300.985/share, with turnover of $25.8893 million.
The most relevant disclosed catalyst in recent coverage is the company’s 40% increase in its quarterly dividend to $0.70 per share, alongside strong fiscal second-quarter results that had materially exceeded market expectations.
Argan announced on September 10 that the higher dividend will be payable on October 30 to shareholders of record on October 22. Earlier, on September 2, the company reported fiscal Q2 EPS of $3.76 on revenue of $384.0 million, versus analyst expectations around $2.55 to $2.64 per share and about $300.5 million in revenue. That combination of higher shareholder returns and earnings outperformance has continued to support sentiment around the stock.
